What my students are saying…

What a life-changing experience – Krish guided myself and my partner to recognise the power within us to support birth in its most natural way. After each session we were far beyond anything we could have imagined before starting the course. Her way of teaching, sharing, and truly listening made us feel safe, supported, and comfortable to express ourselves honestly throughout the course. The fear I’ve had in my life transformed into a sense of curiosity and genuine excitement. ❤︎

Sophie & Michael , Project Manager & Fusion Engineer (Japan)

A beautiful support group in which not only the muscles were trained and prepared for pregnancy and labour, also the fears, insecurities and new emotions were faced and worked with, so that your mind is also getting prepared for the process.

The groups are limited, so everybody has their place to share their thoughts and progress without fear of doing something wrong.

Krish has always an eye on us and supports any need you could have at any moment.

Is This How You’re Feeling About Your Upcoming Birth?

If you’re experiencing any of these, you’re not alone:

  • Overwhelmed by conflicting birth advice and unsure what to trust
  • Anxious about labour pain and losing control during birth
  • Feeling isolated without a supportive community of expecting parents
  • Third trimester discomfort making it hard to move or sleep
  • Uncertain if you’re truly prepared for what’s ahead
  • Worried your birth partner won’t know how to support you
  • Scared of interventions or things “not going to plan”

Here’s the truth: These feelings aren’t “just part of pregnancy.”

They’re signs you haven’t been given the right tools and preparation. But that changes today.

Read on to find out how the how the Calm & Confident Mama Course helps.

Real Results From Real Parents

My husband and I followed the course & we are more than grateful for the feelings of calm & confidence that we have since completing it. Before starting, I was unsure whether we would benefit from it and my husband was very skeptical, but now we advocate for it; not only because of the content, but also because of Krishna’s delivery. She managed to establish a trusting environment & she focused on sharing the resources and knowledge without ever trying to convince us. Thank you!

Marina & Frederico, Talent Acquisition Manager & Finance Manager

Krish is incredibly patient, kind, and warm, and instantly made us feel at ease. Although I wasn’t especially afraid of birth and initially doubted whether a hypnobirthing course was needed, I couldn’t have been more wrong. Practicing the scripts together was far more powerful than reading books and learning alone. Attending the classes with my partner was really powerful. After the first script he read to me, I had my first dream about our baby. We feel calmer and more connected for the birth.

Laura & Nico, The Netherlands, Investing manager & entrepeneur

I took a hypnobirth and pregnancy yoga course with Krish and am incredibly grateful for her guidance! She is calm, professional, and genuinely involved. What I appreciated was that she took her time and tailored each lesson to how I was feeling at that moment. Her personal attention and sincere interest made every session valuable. Thanks to the breathing exercises, postures, and her calm guidance, I feel well prepared for the birth, both physically and mentally!

Location: Online

What is hypnobirthing and how does it work?

Hypnobirthing is a scientifically-backed method that uses deep relaxation, breathing techniques, and birth education to work with your body’s natural birthing process. It reduces fear and pain by helping you understand birth physiology and trigger your body’s natural relaxation response.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The fear-tension-pain cycle and how to break it
  • How your uterus muscles work during labour (and why understanding this changes everything
  • The hormones of birth: oxytocin, endorphins, and adrenaline
  • Why language matters: reframing “contractions” to “surges”
  • Introduction to deep relaxation and visualization techniques
  • Your birth partner’s critical role in creating the optimal birth environment

Outcome: You’ll walk away knowing birth isn’t something to fear, it’s something your body is brilliantly designed to do.

Outcome: You’ll feel empowered to navigate any twist or turn with confidence and clarity.

Meet Krish: Certified KGH Hypnobirthing Practitioner, Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga Teacher (since 2013), PhD Scientist & Mama of 4

Hi! I’m Krish! Mama of 4 (including twins!), scientist, yoga teacher, and certified KGHypnobirthing instructor.

My first birth? A 4-day induction ending in episiotomy, ventouse, fever, and infection. I felt disappointed, shocked, and physically devastated.

I knew there had to be a better way.

For my second pregnancy, I fully committed to hypnobirthing and prenatal yoga. The result? A powerful home birth where my body instinctively knew what to do. I dozed between contractions. There was no pain medication needed. It was transformative.

My third pregnancy was twins: high-risk, with potential for induction or caesarean. Using the same techniques, I had a vaginal delivery of both twins without epidurals or pain relief.

Four births. Four completely different experiences. And hypnobirthing made all the difference.

Now I help parents like you transform fear into confidence, so you can have the empowering birth you deserve.
